sbhatt

He must have gotten new gloves in December...ones that allow him to shoot straight.

great...another PK

twilight zone stuff out there....

faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack

LMAO!!

I love Lapierre's shit disturbing....

He didn't leave...it's called a reverse jinx...and so far, working

Need some saves for this to happen though. God, I miss Huet...

Come on....show some guts....keep it up!!!!

If you can't beat the Sabres when: Afinogenov, Connolly, Drury, Kotalik, and Spacek are out of the lineup... AND at the least, Daniel Briere is under the weather...possibly won't even play then you don't deserve to be in the playoffs. Period. No excuses. A team that loses to a squad this depleted has no guts...no heart...and I'll take it a step further and say NO BALLS. If the Habs lose this game, then it's probably time to start thinking about golf.

We've had plenty of that..... :puke: I'm all for not blowing up the team and sacrificing the future to take a run with a team that obviously isn't a cup contender....BUT....making one move with a first rounder and so-so prospect to get someone that could help now would have been fine by me!!!

The lazy, stupid penalties in the offensive zone are a serious problem....gotta start benching people that take stupid penalties.

I sincerely hope that the back-to-back game situation is what caused that fiasco out there tonight.

Watching this team is starting to be a drag....

What a shit effort. I'm not hopeful for the playoffs.

They'll only get him if they pony up the dough....can't see Smyth giving them a hometown discount being unrestricted.

Way to stand pat, Bob...

Agreed. The race is tight, and the Oilers are mediocre this year. Kevin Lowe got as much as he could for Smyth after he couldn't sign him. What else could he have done?

It's too much unless the Isles already have a deal in place with Smyth to sign him long-term...which I suspect they do.

I'm glad that Bob kept Souray and that he didn't raise the white flag on this season (which is exactly what trading Souray would have been). However, to play devil's advocate: Bob could have used the a good prospect and first round pick he'd have gotten for Souray as part of the package you'd need to land that much needed center in the offseason. That center problem isn't going to go away...a move will have to be made before next season starts.

He also puts the puck in the net on a regular basis.

Great....teams we are fighting with got significant upgrades: Smyth to the Isles and Perrault to the Leafs. Biron went relatively cheap when we have major troubles in nets. Belfour and Cujo were surely available relatively cheap. And Bob? Bob sat on the sidelines with his thumb jambed firmly up his ass. I'm not impressed.

We do have that 1st rounder from San Jose to dangle as bait for a tender....

The Leafs got away with a ton of hooks and grabs in their own end...one particularily blatant one on Koivu comes to mind. Call it an even up non-call.

They won...but...doesn't feel like a reason to celebrate. It's painfully obvious that we're in trouble goaltending-wise for the rest of the season, unless Halak can catch fire. Aebischer is garbage.
